Rubbish directing on first show?

Did anyone else notice the element of chaos on the first show? The cameramen didnt know what they were looking at and we saw way too much of the crew going on stage to place mic stands.

P.s For those of you that dont know Jo Brand revealed last year that if the "celebs" live in london or the surrounding areas they go home at night, and its all faked.

Did she? I didn't notice that. She was in the 2003 Celeb FA. If I remember correctly she went home at night because she had a baby to breastfeed. There was no faking in her case. She was shown leaving. She arrived back after the others were up and about each morning.

Sounds as if CFA has got the same rubbish director(s) and cameraman/men as SCD. Oh for the days when the cameras were so heavy they had to be on a tripod and stayed in one place, instead of today's here, there, and everywhere, zoom in, zoom out, with the screen changing literally every two or three seconds.

Funnily enough Nellie, I said exactly that when we had to put up with yet another "whizz around the performer" shot.

They'll have someone's eye out one day

Its been the same Director for all three of the Celebrity series of Fame Academy, Alex Rudzinski who also directed earlier Series of Strictly Come Dancing and all series of Dancing With the Stars in the US on ABC.

And I think he Directed Deal or No Deal at one point too.
